Will these steps work inside the tub for stepping out? I have a 25 y/o soaker tub with an ill conceived surround. The tsteps up to the tub are too s

- These "could" work from the inside out...BUT...I've found that the tub safety handle, suction cup handles and shower seat are not at the correct height (too low now) thus making it difficult to stand and maneuver on the platform while in the tub.- I mainly use it for entering the tub then remove the step entirely for exiting.- Hope this helps.

This step is just a liteweight hard plastic thats hollow underneath. If you need it in the tub it will probably float up,but ouside of bath it works really well.

I don't know.. but, I would think the steps would be too light to stay under water if tub is not drained. Also, tub might be slippery if water is drained and step could slide tho it does have rubber on the bottom. Don't think I would trust it myself.

This will work only where a flat surface meets a flat surface, like a floor and a wall. It must be flat to be safe. Tubs are usually rounded on the sides and that won't work. I have used it to enter a van and to step onto the deck that has a high step.

Never tried these steps that way but I guess they could work that way. I don't use this in the tub--I use it at my back door, which was a ridiculously high step to get into the house.

Unless your tub bottom is perfectly flat and not slippery, I think it would work. I use it for climbing into the tub, not out. The base of the steps are made of plastic, the top of it has a foam type material where you can't slip, but under water I am not sure if that would work, it might be dangerous. I hope this helped a little.

If the tub is bigger than a standard size tub, it will work. I use mine outside my shower stall in my motor home because the shower is elevated and it's a long step down. Hope that helps. If it doesn't work for you, you can always return it.

I personally wouldn't want to trust them inside a tub. It just might be too slippery when wet.

we tried this on both a 2 step and a 3 step entrance...did not accomodate the low long steps. They do not accept returns for any reason so I suggest you find something from a local company such as a medical supply with some kind of warranty. We tried to return ours, unused, but they refused. Buyer beware.

That is the way we are using it. I needed the wider steps to get into the pool. It works wonderful.

The top step will be out of the water. But I love mine. My pool is 4'. It's great for the kids

I would not use them. I put them on some plastic spa steps with the self sticking backs and they shriveled up and wrinkled. I was very disappointed in this 3M product. Go to Lowes and look for safety treads.

I am not sure. I just left it the way it came and it works fine for me in my case. however, it does not work good for getting in and out of tub unless you are seated and should have not gotten this one after all.

Our pool is 48" deep and for us they fit perfectly. I think the top step had a inch or two of water over them. I think you might want to go with shorter steps. Hope this helps.

Honestly, I don't think it will work for your type of tub. The rollers use a catch inside the mount that is set and cannot be adjusted. I believe that the angle of your tub would cause the rollers to slope toward the tub. The only way that I could see this working is if you build a wedge behind the mount to account for the slope in your tub. Hope this helps.

I believe it will work with your tub. Description says fits 3 to 5.25 inch tubs. My tub is 5 inches wide and it fits great. Very sturdy and doesn't move when using it. Very easy to install. I got it for my 85 year old Mom to hang on to while getting in and out of tub and it works great. Hope that helps.

I know there are waterfall faucets for tubs. Whether or not they have the same design, I don't know. I think it could be very possible. Check this website and be sure to put "tub" in your search.

No, it will not work for you! Our camper step is about the same as yours, (6 inches) and these are too tall to fit even at their lowest setting. For mine, I had to cut the bottom pad off, cut the tube down, and then reweld the pad back onto the now shortened tube and then repaint. Unless you have the capability to do this, do not waste your money on these.

Unfortunately, I had the same issue. I bought a stainless steel tub for our mud room. It was very difficult to fit to the sink and we had to have fittings made to fit. Now that it is installed, we love it. We found a commercial plumbing supply that was able to help us! You won't find what you need at a Lowes or HomeDepot.

These were about an inch wider then my original steps. It still fits into the drilled out spaces on top. If you haven't had the medal ones, not sure if I recommend them if your furst is out of water. It is always hot. We had plastic before. It is 20 inches from end to end.

Yes, I'm sure they would. My pool is 52" deep and the top step is only a few inches below the top rail, covered by 1-2 inches of water. The arm that screws into the upper deck to hold the steps in place is adjustable and appears to have room to easily adjust up or down. We love these steps. They are so stable and makes getting in and out of the pool much easier, except for the times when my lab or yorkie is lounging on that top step in the cool water, lol. Its a popular spot for them on hot, Florida afternoons.

Yes.. if you are talking about it being on the floor outside the tub and you are stepping in and out onto it. I would also suggest using a grab bar in conjunction with it if no one is there to assist you. Someone mentioned about not using INSIDE tub to get out and I agree with them if that's what you have in mind. I would not use anywhere but on the floor. Myself, I use it on the driveway to assist my 91 yr old mother to get in and out of my SUV.

From outside leg to outside leg it is 17 1/2 inches. The thing that may be a problem for you are the arms. They are 22 inches wide. If you have a lip on the inside of the tub it may still work. If you have a grab bar you may be able to do away with the inside arm.

I have the same problem. I've adjust every way I can think of but the steps only go up and down a couple of inches. I hope someone comes up with a solution.
